MFI2568AEB Maytag Refrigerator - Instructions

First I removed the pantry drawer; then the two crisper drawers and glass shelf. Then I removed the hex screws that held end cap in place. Removal of cap from refrigerator was complicated by the adjustable temperature control - it is loosely attached at the back of end cap and also has to be removed to get cap out. Gentle persuasion accomplishes this. Getting the slider off end cap also a bit difficult. Then I removed the drawer glides. Reversing all steps was fairly easy and the rest of the "fix" went well. I wished that there had been some written directions - or at the very least, a diagram of how all went together. All in all was still cheaper than repair person.

Simple placement of new glass pane into crisper top

I removed and replaced the right pantry end cap, as well as the drawer lid.

Empty drawer and take out . remove glass shelf and front and rear shelf braces. remove 2 screws holding pantry end cap to fridge. remove rear bracket by unsnapping clips. remove temp control arm. and reattach to new end cap. reinstall rear bracket to fridge and align end cap, align screws and tighten. reinstall drawers and shelf brackets. replace glass shelf. and reattach lid to brackets. Open beer and enjoy success.

Removed the top glass above the vegetable drawers and slipped the center rail in place. And I would like to add that I would do business with this site again!

First pull out bucket, then slide side plastic piece that hides wire harness on lower left side out.. Then pull /slide whole unit forward/out. Disconnect wire harness plug when doing so. Set old unit on table standing on end, put new unit right next to it. remove whole tray assembly from old unit, 3 screws on back. Use new wire harness that comes with new ice maker. put new tray assembly on end unit where the other came off. replace the three screws holding it to fan unit. remove on/off switch from old unit and put in new unit cover. Use small screw driver to remove old end switch cover. On off switch is pushed into place on new end cover. Purple wire on bottom plug and other on top. observe what you have and Just replace what you removed. Piece I did not use was flat plastic piece,flapper? This did not come with instructions, so basically I changed everything incl wire harness, put back together and put back in freezer. Ice bucket was full by next morning. Instructions and or video would have been nice. Tool;s used was a 1/4 in nut driver, small flat blade screwdriver.

It was easier than I had anticipated. Just had to make sure that I was very careful in removing the old part so I did not break any of the good plastic that I needed in order to install the plastic temperature control to the new part.

Instructions were great five minutes to remove and replace fan....Thank You............ saved big money

We came home from a long vacation to discover a warm refrigerator with its contents in various stages of decay.

Turning the freezer thermostat to its warmest setting then back to cold generated clicks, and after a few tries the compressor started and cooled the refrigerator to its normal cold temperatures. But… later the compressor again failed to start, and everything warmed back up again. With persistence and turning the thermostat up and down several times a day, we could keep the fridge cold.

It was time to order parts. We needed a new start relay and capacitor for the compressor. For our Amana ARB2214CW a start relay (WP12555902) and capacitor (WP65889-4) were listed on the first page of the Partselect parts list for my refrigerator. I ordered them, received them, removed the old capacitor and start relay (which rattled when shaken). and prepared to install my new parts. The new start relay did not match the old. The old start relay fit my wiring which had a single plug with two small female spade connectors in the plug. The new start relay required wiring with two separate female spade connectors; one the normal size and one larger. Phone calls to Partselect and to Westinghouse shed no light on the discrepancy. On the second page of the Partselect parts list was a combination of a start relay and a capacitor (W10613606) that matched my electrical connector. I could see the connection in the photograph. I ordered it and it fit. Easy peazy. That fixed the compressor start problem. Every time the freezer thermostat clicked on, the compressor started. Success.

But… from our troubleshooting we now had a thermometer the freezer, and it was obvious that the temperature difference between the cold point where the thermostat turned the compressor off and the warm point where the thermostat restarted the compressor was much too wide. In addition, the knob was hard to turn and was sticky as it turned. Oiling it fixed the sticky knob problem but not the wide temperature difference problem. I ordered a new freezer thermostat (WP67003000), received it, installed it, and all is now fine with my refrigerator. The new thermostat was physically a little different from the original, but it fit and worked.

I returned the first compressor start relay and capacitor and received a refund including the shipping charge.

If you can fix things around the house, you can do this!
First, try resetting the touchpad by unplugging the refrigerator electrical cord for about 10 seconds, then plug it back in and try the touchpad. If it starts working you don’t need to replace it yet.
If it doesn’t work, order the replacement touchpad and install it as follows. The one I ordered came with the low power control panel (#13). This repair takes about 30-45 minutes depending how much elbow grease is required to clean the old touchpad’s adhesive off the front panel. Read all the steps below first before attempting this repair.
Step 1. Unplug refrigerator electrical cord.
Step 2. Remove drip tray (#14) and remove two screws with nutdriver.
Step 3. Remove front panel (#11).
Step 4. Disconnect low power control board (#13) from all wiring harnesses.
Step 5. Remove low power control board (#13) from front panel (#11).
Step 6. Remove touchpad (#12) from front panel (#11).
Step 7. Clean adhesive completely from front panel (#11).
IMPORTANT: DO NOT USE ABRASIVES - use appropriate solvent (e.g. rubbing alcohol, Goo-Gone, Krud Kutter, etc.) to remove adhesive completely from front panel (#11) - DO NOT USE ABRASIVES.
Step 8. Mount new low power control board (#13) on front panel (#11).
Step 9. Very carefully align and mount new touchpad (#12) on front panel (#11).
IMPORTANT: Pull new touchpad wiring harness all the way through the opening to the back of the front panel (#11) before exposing the new touchpad’s (#12) adhesive backing. Mount new touchpad (#12) exactly where the old one used to be.
Step 10. Reconnect all wiring harnesses to low power control board (#13).
Step 11. Mount front panel (#11), install two screws with nudriver, and drip tray (#14) back on refrigerator.
Step 12. Plug in refrigerator and check operation of new touchpad (#12).

Don't try and remove the front/handle from the broken pan, you will break it and its double the price of the pan, just use the small hammer to break the pan into smaller pieces and remove handle from them then the handle will just snap onto the new pan. Piece of cake!

Replaced mullion and pivot block
The pivot block and the mullion showed signs of wear and tear where they would meet up to close the left door.

Broken bottom drawer lid mount

The old plactic ring can be removed with flat bladed screw driver, starting on the right side prying it up worked best for me. The new seal snaps in only one way take your time to get it wright.
